What's the silliest thing you've ever done on a computer?
I managed to lose a couple of weeks of work once copying data off of a memory stick into a directory with newer versions of some of the files (by absentmindedly answering "yes" to "overwrite?")
I screamed! Didn't help.

That's up there with snapping a CDROM by somehow trapping it at a *very* bad angle in a caddy with a vicious pull to it. To this day I can't quite reconstruct the sequence of events in my head.
Mind you, that's over 37 years of computer use, so maybe I can be excused. 😆

Oh, and I cracked a processor trying to take a heatsink off it. The nightmares are coming flooding back now...
And how can I forget deleting *all* my Gmail messages (20,000+)? Was able to get them back from the Bin but for some reason only in lots of 200 at a time.
